Funny I thought the vetting consisted of best at lying with a straight face and fastest to his knees.

As usual, Trump is lying. The truth: my grocery bill has increased about 30% since he took office.

The stupidity is astounding. Tariff wood from Canada and then destroy U.S. national forests as a solution. (Trump manufacturing an excuse to sell off federal resources.) Stupid.

It all seems like one man’s gigantic ego trip. He does not care about job loss. He only cares about how powerful it makes him feel to control world economies.

Trump sees every catastrophe for the American public as a win for himself and those of his ilk. He sees the entire class of non-wealthy as losers and suckers.
comment in response to post
In other words - he revealed his true self to the world. Confused and weak.

How I long for the good old days when certain men’s tweets, threats, and stupid ideas didn’t influence markets and cause even the most savvy investors to run for the hills.

Having lived in coal country and seen men walk around town covered in coal dust after their shift, can say without reservation that nobody likes to be in the mines. Its a job in a job-scarce area. If other jobs were available, nobody would work in the mines.

So is Trump’s head…

How long do you think it will take for everyone to admit that Trump’s only goal is to ruin the US as retribution for not liking him enough?

The so-called reshaping of the federal government mainly involves getting rid of the little guys, removing recourse for the little guys, scapegoating the little guys. The real bureaucrats - the wealthy electeds - will be wealthier and will remain untouchable. What reshaping?

Why does all this feel like an episode in Game of Thrones?

Pretty good return on investment for Musk. The grift that keeps on grifting.

They’re setting the stage for stopping social security payments without notice to recipients. If you complain, you’re a fraudster. If you don’t complain, you obviously didn’t need the money in the first place.

Highlighting military members who have success outside their military service is a valuable recruiting tool. Outside the blaring racism behind this action, it hurts recruitment efforts….unless of course you’re only recruiting white men 🤔

They’re right that someone needs to be impeached. But its not the judge.

No question, the reason Schumer and others are voting with Rs is because they agree with what is happening.

Sure, Jan.

If the blame for the unlawful and horrific policies of an administration lies with public sector workers, workers need to stop carrying out Trump’s agenda (no more access to systems and info for DOGE!).
comment in response to post
The fate of federal workers is certain under this administration - total elimination. You supporting the CR does not change that fact. Resistance in any form is better than bending the knee to autocracy.

Crazy how Trump declaring tariffs on Canada for a completely fabricated reason has turned into Trump declaring economic war on his own country.
comment in response to post
By this logic, he should consider the recent market as evidence that the entire country is against him (and his policies).
comment in response to post
Can see it now. New employment question for federal jobs: Do you own a tesla? If no, are you willing to buy a tesla as a condition of employment?

Illegally?? 🤣

What happens when the family and community cannot afford groceries housing, utilities, insurance bc of prices? How is children starving to death, dying w/o medical care or having to live on the streets focused on family?
comment in response to post
Its not just SS they are destroying - its everything. All federal agencies are being cut so severely that the people left behind will not be able to keep up with the work. Scapegoating the “bureaucracy” will lead to a complete collapse of the fed govt - as they intend.

How much is “Elon” charging the American taxpayers and how much is the kickback?

Seems like the goal is to eliminate the middle-middle and lower-middle class by over taxation and to let the lower class die by eliminating safety net programs like Medicaid and food assistance. Or maybe they just want to hurt as many people as possible.

I liken it to the retail cashier telling me how much money I saved today. No sweetie I did not save $270 on my $35 purchase today.

Beta testing which lie is the most believable.

The Mars colony should start and end with Elon Musk.
comment in response to post
Wait so government workers CAN telework full time when its at the convenience of the ….. government? Even when some 20 year old DOGE thinks office space is not needed to work in the OFFICE? My mind just got blown.
comment in response to post
I have been saying this for weeks. Imagine you’re not getting your SS check. Now what? You can’t talk to a human. Closing regional office so you can’t go to a nearby office for help. Nope, you’ll just have to go without food electricity gas phone etc cuz AI ain’t fixing it for you!

And while all of government is busy responding to meaningless emails and data calls, for hours every day, the entire government is being dismantled right under the public’s nose.
comment in response to post
Almost?
comment in response to post
So Elon gets money from govt contracts & uses said money to buy a president who installs Elon as an overseer who can control who gets govt contracts. He then has more $$ to pay said bought president. Normal people go to jail for less.

Bus, meet Amy Gleason.

Trump who?
comment in response to post
If employees respond their responses will be used against them. If they do not respond, the lack of response is used against them. The point is to continually villainize fed employees by any and all means. How many taxpayer dollars are wasted by DOGE with these schemes?
